TAILIEUCHUNG - Báo cáo khoa học: "Inheriting Verb Alternations"

The paper shows how the verbal lexicon can be formalised in a way that captures and exploits generalisations about the alternation behaviour of verb classes. An alternation is a pattern in which a number of words share the same relationship between • a pair of senses. The alternations captured are ones where the different senses specify different relationships between syntactic complements and semantic arguments, as between bake in "John is baking the cake" and "The cake is baking". The formal language used is DATR. . | Inheriting Verb Alternations Adam Kilgarriff Longman Dictionaries Burnt Mill Harlow Essex CM20 2JE England Abstract The paper shows how the verbal lexicon can be formalised in a way that captures and exploits generalisations about the alternation behaviour of verb classes. An alternation is a pattern in which a number of words share the same relationship between a pair of senses. The alternations captured are ones where the different senses specify different relationships between syntactic complements and semantic arguments as between bake in John is baking the cake and The cake is baking . The formal language used is DATR. The lexical entries it builds are as specified in HPSG. The complex alternation behaviour shared between families of verbs is elegantly represented in a way that makes generalisations explicit avoids redundancy and offers practical benefits to computational lexicographers. 1 Introduction The paper shows how the verbal lexicon can be formalised in a way that captures and exploits generalisations about the alternation behaviour of verb classes. An alternation is a pattern in which a number of words share the same relationship between a pair of senses. The kinds of alternations to be captured are ones where the different senses specify different relationships between syntactic complements and semantic arguments as in the relation between bake in John is baking the cake and John is baking or between melt in the chocolate melted and 1 would like to thank Gerald Gazdar and Roger Evans for their many valuable comments and SERC for the grant under which the work was undertaken. Mary melted the chocolate .1 Given that compactness and non-redundancy are a desideratum of theoretical descriptions the different usage-types for bake and wipe should not require US to introduce different primitives into the lexicon. Moreover as the alternations are shared with other verbs they should be described at some general node in a hierarchically organised lexicon and .
